Block Rain
by ParkurGod
Block Rain adds falling blocks, entities and items that drop from the sky during play, built as a Fabric minigame mod for Minecraft 1.20.6.
What it does
Block Rain adds falling bloxs, entities and items that come down from the sky as a themed rain. The mod is categorized as a minigame and also falls under game mechanics, world generation, cursed, magic and mobs. Server owners need it installed, since the server is where the falling objects are spawned, while a player may add it on the client but does not have to.
The author's notes describe plans to extend support to the 1.20.x and 1.21.x lines and to make other mods able to add new bloxs, items and entities. A Forge build is mentioned as a future goal, but no Forge file is published. The mod is open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 or later, and its source code and issue tracker are public.
Block Rain was first published on 2026-08-13 and last updated on 2026-08-20, when the beta file 1.1.0-beta for 1.20.6 went out on the beta channel. Only Fabric is supported, and the only game version with files is 1.20.6.
Key features
Falling bloxs from the sky
Blocks, entities and items fall from the sky during play, turning ordinary terrain into a rain of objects.
Falling entities
Entities join the falling objects, so the sky can bring mobs down rather than only solid blocks.
Extensible content
The author plans for other mods to add new bloxs, items and entities to the rain.

Use cases
Minigame servers
Server owners can run the falling rain as a round-based minigame where players must survive the objects.
Who it’s for: Server owners who want a falling-object minigame, and players who join those servers. Single-player players gain little, since the server is the part that runs the rain.
How it compares
Potion Storm is a server-side only Fabric mod for 1.20.1 under the MIT License, which is open source. Item Rain is also server-side only on Fabric, for 1.21.11, and is not open source, since it uses the CC0 1.0 Universal license. Make It Rain! is a client-side only Fabric mod for 1.20 – 1.21.10, open source under the CC0 1.0 Universal license, so it changes nothing on the server.
